Arm lift is an aesthetic procedure performed to address sagging, laxity, and excess skin in the upper arm area. It can be performed using surgical (brachioplasty) and non-invasive (HIFU, radiofrequency, thread) methods. Arm sagging caused by aging, weight loss, or genetic factors can be corrected with these techniques.
In our arm lift procedures performed in Istanbul at Million Hair Clinic, the most suitable method is selected based on the degree of sagging. Non-invasive methods (HIFU, RF, thread) are preferred for mild sagging, while surgical brachioplasty is chosen for advanced cases.
At our clinic, arm lift operations are performed by our experienced plastic surgeons using minimal scar techniques. The surgical incision is concealed on the inner arm. Non-invasive methods leave no scarring and allow an immediate return to daily life.
